DIVERSITY & INCLUSION

Does any element of your costume represent a culture or identity of which you are not a part? Consider this question as you are choosing your costume for Halloween this year. All Bobcats have a responsibility to educate themselves on the difference between cultural appropriation vs. cultural appreciation. Watch this video (opens in a new window) to learn more.
